Image of the blue marble 2002 much of the information contained in this image came from a single remote sensing device nasa s moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer or modis. Next generation offers greater spatial detail of the surface and spans a longer data collection period than the original. Blue marble 2002 source.

The hard part was creating a flat map of the earth s surface with four. To learn more about the development of nasa s imagery of the earth as a whole read the history of the blue marble. By 2002 we finally had enough data to make a snap shot of the entire earth. This translunar coast photograph extends from the mediterranean sea area to the antarctica south polar ice cap.

Our team is purely about communications. Blue marble 2002 source. Using a collection of satellite based observations scientists and visualizers stitched together months of observations of the land surface oceans sea ice and clouds into a seamless true color mosaic of every square kilometer 386 square mile of our planet. Nasa s earth observatory published.

April 4 2018 in 2002 nasa scientists and visualizers stitched together strips of brand new data in natural color collected over four months from the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer or modis instrument aboard terra. This spectacular blue marble image is the most detailed true color image of the entire earth to date. In 2002 nasa scientists and visualizers stitched together strips of brand new data in natural color collected over four months from the moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer or modis instrument aboard terra.
